I Will Be the Son of Man

"It's nothing, but be careful next time you come out alone!"

"Ok!"

Seeing the leaving figure of the girl and her mother, Bayuqian smiled, with a slightly brighter smile on his face.

"Why does Miss Ba have time to stay in the city today?"

After the girl and her mother disappeared from sight, Merlin stepped forward and said.

"The king said that the battle in the past few days was a bit hard, so he specially let me rest for a day."

"Is that so... But with a general like Miss Ba around, the front line should have eased a lot, right?"

"No, the actions of the monsters have suddenly become organized recently. I suspect that there may be some kind of existence behind them directing them. The situation is not very good..."

Ba Yuqian shook his head, his originally bright smiling face immediately became sad after remembering what happened on the battlefield.

"Is that so...but with King Gilgamesh around, there shouldn't be a problem. After all, that king is now a wise king!"

Merlin recalled that since he was summoned, he didn't seem to see Gilgamesh resting, so he couldn't help but smiled wryly.

"It's true, the king's sageness is indeed rare, but I'm still a little worried..."

Ba Yuqian responded, but it was obvious that her mind was not on this, but was thinking about the law of the monsters' actions during this period.

Even if she really got off the battlefield, she couldn't rest in peace.After all, the lives of those soldiers in Uruk depended on her.

However, just as the atmosphere between Merlin and Bayu gradually became serious and gloomy, a childish voice suddenly broke in.

"Merlin, what was that just now?"

"Uh, what are you referring to, Your Highness Hill?"

"It's that 'pain flies away'...why do that?"

The pure white toddler gestured like he was stroking, and then Merlin understood that the other party had been silent before, so he was thinking about it.

"King Gilgamesh's child, Your Highness Hill."

The sorrow on Bayuqian's face melted away, and a smile appeared again.

She saw that there was no expression on her face, but her eyes were unexpectedly persistently entangled with the meaning of her actions just now, and her smile couldn't help but softened a little.

I thought it was a child who was shy and didn't like to talk, but I didn't expect to be so fond of exploring in this area...

"That's because if you touch the other person's head while talking like that, the wound will really gradually become less painful! The other person's mood will also improve!"

Explaining and touching Hill's head, although Ba Yuqian had the urge to hold the cute child in her arms, she still held back.

"Is that so, Merlin?"

Feeling the touch from his head, coupled with the experience of the previous few times, to be honest, Hill didn't feel anything special, just felt a little comfortable.

"In a sense it does, because it's one of the ways humans show love."

"Love?"

"Yes. But human love is too complicated, and no one can explain what it is. Now you just need to remember that this is one of the forms of expressing emotions."

Merlin gave a wry smile, asking the half-dream demon to explain what human love is, it was really making things difficult for him.

"Hmm... don't understand..."

Hill shook his head, Sanwu's face combined with the somewhat serious attitude, couldn't help but make Merlin and Bayuqian feel a lot more relaxed after seeing this scene.

"Then, Your Excellency Merlin, I have to report the battle situation to the king after this, so goodbye."

"And Your Highness Hill, see you next time!"

Saying goodbye to the two of them with a light smile, Bayuqian, who had a gentle motherly smile on his face, disappeared from the sight of the two of them.

After waiting for a while, on the way back to the bedroom, Hill suddenly spoke.

"Merlin, that... isn't human?"

"Huh? Ah! You mean Miss Bayuqian, Your Highness Hill?"

Responding to what the other party was referring to, and remembering that the other party had realized his inhuman identity when they first met, Mei Lin said clearly.

"As far as the power hidden in Miss Bayuqian's body is concerned, it does not seem to be human, but it can also be said to be human."

"Then, if it's not a human being, why would you know, um... the expression that humans love?"

It seemed that the question was reached after thinking for a long time. This time, even Merlin didn't know how to answer Hill for a while.

"I may not be able to answer this question for you, Your Highness Hill, because I do not know what love is. Maybe you can ask King Gilgamesh this question."

Throwing the tricky question to Gilgamesh, Merlin didn't want to blame him, but he really couldn't answer the pure white boy's inquiry.

"Does Jill know?"

"Well, as the king of this world, King Gilgamesh must understand what human love is."

Whether it's true or false, Merlin first said something nice about Gilgamesh, successfully diverting the target of Hill's questioning.

"I see."

Nodding his head, Hill didn't ask any more questions. Instead, he took out an apple presented by the previous stall owners from the small bag on Merlin's body, ate it and walked away.

Seeing this, Merlin also heaved a sigh of relief, and quickly followed the figure of the other party.

At night, after having dinner, Gilgamesh unexpectedly came to Hill's bedroom.

After dismissing the waiting maids in the room, Gilgamesh sat across from Hill, and said with a corner of his mouth.

"How is it, Hill? After today, what have you seen?"

The pure white boy stopped biting the apple, tilted his head, and looked at Gilgamesh seriously with golden pupils.

Then the little body stood up, reached out and pressed Gilgamesh's golden hair, and stroked it lightly.

"What are you doing here?"

Gilgamesh, who is like a king, was stunned for a moment when faced with the sudden move of his adopted son.

"Ba Yuqian said that by doing this, human beings will feel better."

"Jill, I'm in a bad mood..."

Without stopping his movements, Hill carefully stroked Gilgamesh's head. Compared with Gilgamesh's tall body, Hill's small body had an inexplicable atmosphere pervading it.

"Ha! Hahahaha! That woman really taught you unnecessary things!"

Knowing that the pure white boy in front of him noticed the emotions that he had hidden in his heart because of something during this period, Gilgamesh laughed at himself, but in fact, he did not respond to the words that Bayuqian transmitted to Hill. And feel angry.

"Okay, thanks to you, the king's mood has indeed improved a lot."

"But that's not because of your behavior, but because of your growth!"

"Growth? I don't understand..."

Hill shook his head, but immediately he threw out the question he had asked in the afternoon.

"Jill, what is human love?"

"Do you love..."

Gilgamesh restrained his expression, looked at the child in front of him with red eyes for a long time, and then chuckled lightly.

"It's too early for you, and it's not something that can be understood by others' explanation."

Touching Hill's pure white hair, Gilgamesh's smile gradually became pleasant.

"Very well, your growth rate has exceeded my expectations, so just keep worrying about it, think about it, and find the answer by yourself, Hill! Hahahahaha!"

Leaving the bedroom in a happy mood, Hill looked at the back of Gilgamesh laughing up to the sky, and blinked, not understanding the message received in his soul.

At noon the next day, a herd of monsters attacked Uruk aggressively.

Ba Yuqian, one of the generals on the north wall, in order to resist the herd, and the commander of the Warcraft Front, Kitablier——

perish together.

Chapter 010: Looking for the Clay Tablet of Destiny

The top of the tower, inside the meeting hall.

Gilgamesh sat on the throne, looked at Merlin and Siduri below, and said.

"I am very sorry about what happened to Ba Yuqian, but now is not the time to be sad."

"This incident, plus the sacrifices of Fuma Kotaro and Amakusa Shiro who were searching for information a few days ago, there are only four servants left, but the number of monsters is still increasing..."

Speaking of this, Gilgamesh was silent for a while before speaking.

"Merlin the Magician, I have a new task for you now, to find the Tablet of Fate that I abandoned back then, and bring it back!"

"The Destiny Clay Tablet?"

"That's right, that's the clay tablet that recorded the fragments of the future that the king saw in meditation. It's very important to Uruk now."

"Why did you lose such an important thing?"

Merlin looked at Gilgamesh speechlessly, and said with distress on his face.

"And even if you tell me that, it's too difficult to find the Tablet of Destiny you mentioned in a short time..."

"Don't worry, I still have some clues. Anyway, go to the forest to the west and look for it first!"

Gilgamesh thought about it for a while, and then gave Merlin the general direction.
